sewing and snowing!!

This morning was fun to wake up to a lovely blanket of white outside!! With not feeling well this last week (thanks so much for all the kindest well wishes!), it got me in the mood to sew a little. I had gotten a couple more granny squares done last week and then got a couple more done today!! I only have 4 more left and then I'll get to start sewing the quilt top together!!

I really love how they are turning out!! The colors looks so soft and pretty against the linen!! And of course I had to take them outside to get a few pictures of them in the snow before it all melted away. :)

Here are the four new ones!

Little Red Riding Hood in Red, Aqua and Pink

Squirrel in the rain!

Hansel and Gretal

Little Red Riding Hood in Pink and Green

I can't wait to see it all put together! I think it is going to be a favorite new quilt!!

This week-end my son had a boy scout cake auction, and this is the cake that we made. With me not feeling so well, my hubby did a lot of it with him, but I helped with the trees. :) I think it turned out really cute!!

The cake turned out amazing! So much fun!Another question....we are redoing our front hallway/adjoining bathroom. So I am trying to pick out tile. Where about in your house are the tiles in your picture? Do you know any info about them? So many decisions! Thanks for your help!
